Uptake of co-testing with HPV and cytology for cervical screening: A population-based evaluation in the United States

Abstract: Cervical cancer screening by co-testing increased from 5.6% in 2008 to 84.3% in 2019 among women ages 30-64 years.• Smaller increases in co-test usage were observed in women of younger ages, although not currently recommended.• The median screening interval increased from 15 to 39 months as screening guideline recommendations were adopted.• The near exclusive use of the Hybrid Capture II HPV test has changed to the use of target amplified HPV tests.

“…In addition, almost all biopsied women had abnormal cytology, and a substantial number of HPV16/18 positive, cytology negative women would not have been identified or biopsied during the period of our study, as co-testing was only used in about 50% of screening tests at that time. 47 Therefore, conclusions can only be reliably drawn for hrHPV positive women with abnormal cytology. The performance of cytology and to a lesser extent also HPV16/18 genotyping is subject to selection bias, as it is well known that referral bias can inflate the performance characteristics of the tests that are the basis of management decisions.…”

“…Results from several randomized trials indicate an increase in the detection of precancerous lesions and a decrease in CC diagnoses after negative screening using these methods alone. The proportion of co-tests performed in one US state increased from 5.6% (2008) to 84.3% in women aged 30–64 years [ 60 ]. Interesting results were provided by a study in the pilot project “WOLPHSCREEN” on a group of 26,624 women, where it was shown that the incidence of CC significantly decreases when screening with co-testing is performed every 5 years [ 61 ].…”

“…For women 50–65 years old, though, cotesting is less common than Pap testing alone, mitigating that possible overestimation ( Watson et al, 2018 ). In addition, cervical cancer screening modalities in the United States at the time of the survey were 80% cotesting and 20% cytology alone, indicating 14% of the women responded inaccurately to the type of cervical cancer screen they had ( Cuzick et al, 2021 ).…”
